Introduction

Below is a description of what data we gather from you as a visitor to our various publicly-accessible websites, which includes switchboard.live, joicaster.co, and other websites where this Website Privacy Policy is posted. Use of the term "website" herein shall mean to include all of Switchboards websites. Also, included below is a description of why we collect and how we use the data we collect on the Switchboard website. The Switchboard website does not include our Connect portal which you access by signing up for an account with Switchboard. If you are interested in learning more about our practices regarding data that we collect when you sign up for a Switchboard account on our Connect portal and use our developer products and services, click here.

In this notice, the words "our," "us," "we," and "Switchboard" refer to Switchboard Live Inc. and our affiliates (which includes any person or entity that controls us, is controlled by us, or is under common control with us, such as our subsidiary, parent company, or our employees).

Information Collected

Data you give to us directly. On some places on the Switchboard website, you can fill in a web form to share your data with us directly, such as on our "Talk to Sales" page or on our "Talk to Support" page. We collect the information you provide in response to those web forms. Occasionally, we may also offer opportunities for you to share your data with us such as through a survey, to sign up for a newsletter, or to register for or receive details about an event we are sponsoring. If you participate in those surveys, sign up for a newsletter, or register for an event, we will collect the information you provide to us in doing so.

Check out our Switchboard Products and Connect Portal Privacy Policy for details about what data Switchboard collects from you when you sign up for an account or login to your account and how we use that data.

When you visit the Switchboard website, we and our service providers acting on our behalf automatically collect certain data using tracking technologies like cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies. Other data collection tools may include local storage (e.g., Flash Cookies, HTML5), web beacons (e.g., pixel tags, clear GIFs), embedded script programming code, ETag identifier at URL, log file information (e.g., IP address), location data (e.g., GPS coordinates), device information (e.g., MAC address), and analytics information (e.g., Google Analytics).

How We Use Your Information

Data you give us directly. For data that you give to us directly through the "Talk to Sales" and "Talk to Support" pages, we will use that data to formulate a response to your inquiry and know how to get back to you with our response. Similarly, if you provide us information directly in response to a survey or when signing up for an event, we will use the data you provide for the reason that you provided it to us and for other purposes that we tell you about at the time when you provided that data.

Data we collect automatically. For data that we collect from you automatically through tracking technologies, we use this data to understand how visitors to the Switchboard website are using it and which pages and features of the Switchboard Site are most popular. This helps us understand how we can improve our website. In addition, tracking technologies are used to help improve the navigation experience on the Switchboard website. Other uses include improving our Services, marketing, implementing features you activate, and to conduct research to enhance our offerings, and to record your preferences to enhance your experience.

How We Share Your Information

Unless you give us your permission, we don't share data we collect from you with third parties, except as described below:

Third party service providers or consultants. We may share data collected from you on the Switchboard Site with third-party service providers or consultants who need access to the data to perform their work on Switchboard's behalf, such as a website analytics company or our third party advertising partners. These third party service providers are limited to only accessing or using this data to provide services to us and must provide reasonable assurances that they will appropriately safeguard the data.

Compliance with Laws. We may disclose your data to a third party if (i) we believe that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or government request, (ii) to enforce our agreements and policies, (iii) to protect the security or integrity of the Switchboard website or our Services, (iv) to protect ourselves, our other customers, or the public from harm or illegal activities, or (v) to respond to an emergency which we believe in good faith requires us to disclose data to assist in preventing a death or serious bodily injury. If Switchboard is required by law to disclose any of your data that directly identifies you, then we will use reasonable efforts to provide you with notice of that disclosure requirement, unless we are prohibited from doing so by statute, subpoena or court or administrative order. Further, we object to requests that we do not believe were issued properly.
